Reborn in ancient times: I will make my family rich
Chapter 104 Be Careful
"Your Majesty, both the Pingyang Marquisate and General Gu hold military power. I hope Your Majesty will think twice about this matter."
"Wei Chen seconded the proposal."
"I don't think it's appropriate either."
Several leading ministers in the court came forward to express their positions.
Seeing someone raise an objection, Pingyang Hou, who was waiting on the side, stepped forward and said, "Your Majesty, since ancient times, it has been a taboo for one family to dominate, and I have never heard of my father leaving behind a legacy."
"For the sake of the country, I am willing to sever my relationship with General Gu and resolve the doubts of the ministers."
Pingyang Hou's speech was full of righteousness.
"My dear Minister Gu! This was given to me personally by your old lady. It cannot be fake." The emperor spoke with sarcasm, speaking up for Gu Yanzhou.
"Your Majesty, I am willing to give up my military power and do not want to disappoint my grandfather's kindness."
Gu Yanzhou told the emperor the countermeasures that he had discussed with him in advance.
This caused all the ministers to be shocked and they all turned around to look at Gu Yanzhou.
You have to know that Gu Yanzhou holds half of the military power, and his status is not much lower than that of a hereditary marquis.
What's more, Gu Yanzhou is still young and has a bright future ahead of him.
"If General Gu is so inclined, I have no objection."
The ministers then expressed their agreement.
While acknowledging Gu Yanzhou's filial piety, he also despised Pingyang Hou's cruelty.
Gu Yunting, standing among the ministers, clenched his fists tightly under his court robe in an effort to hold back.
But his identity told him not to stand out.
I can only plan it slowly later.
"Since all the ministers agree, then I will fulfill the old Marquis of Pingyang's last wish," the emperor said and winked at Li Sheng who was standing beside him.
Li Sheng immediately stepped forward and took out the imperial edict that had been prepared in advance.
"General Gu, please accept the order!"
Gu Yanzhou immediately took a few steps forward and knelt on the ground to listen to Li Sheng read the imperial edict.
"The Emperor, in compliance with the Will of Heaven, proclaims that the old Marquis of Pingyang has left a letter requesting that his eldest grandson, Gu Yanzhou, be made the Crown Prince. I have approved it. The old Marquis of Pingyang left a letter saying that his eldest grandson was a man of noble character and filial piety, and that Gu would like to take care of his widow together with the Marquis of Pingyang until her death. I hope you will know this. I decree this."
The last sentence was added by the emperor specifically for Gu Yanzhou.
"Thank you, Your Majesty. Long live the emperor. I will keep my grandfather's last wish in mind." Gu Yanzhou took the imperial edict and expressed his gratitude.
When he looked up, he bumped into the emperor sitting high on the throne.
The two looked into each other's eyes, and all their friendship was unspoken.
The corners of Gu Yanzhou's lips curled up imperceptibly.
With the emperor's edict, I have an excuse to take my grandmother out of the Pingyang Marquis' Mansion in a legitimate manner.
He kept the emperor's kindness in his heart.
The matter came to an end after the court session.
Gu Yanzhou immediately went to find Jiang Nan.
"Little Gu is here, why do you look so unhappy?" Mother Jiang saw Gu Yanzhou coming over with a pale face, and her tone was full of concern.
"Aunt, I'm fine."
"Go in quickly and find Nan Nan and ask her to take a look at you," Jiang's mother urged Gu Yanzhou.
"Okay," Gu Yanzhou nodded.
Jiang Nan heard the conversation between Gu Yanzhou and Jiang's mother outside, put down the things in his hands and walked out.
"What's wrong? Are you feeling uncomfortable somewhere?"
"I just have a little stomachache, but it's nothing serious," Gu Yanzhou said nonchalantly.
In the past, when I was in the army marching and fighting, my meals were irregular, and this was an old problem I developed at that time.
"Come here, let me show you," Jiang Nan said coldly when he saw his nonchalant look.
"It was fine just now, but now I suddenly feel a little uncomfortable."
Gu Yanzhou noticed that Jiang Nan was in a bad mood, and he raised his hand to cover his chest with an exaggerated gesture, and then spoke behind Jiang Nan.
"Humph, I think you care less and less about your body. Rong Xin said before that you haven't slept for three consecutive days, and now you have a stomachache. You are not the kind of person who eats randomly. You must not have eaten well."
When Jiang Nan said this, his face was full of certainty.
Even though the two of them had not been together for a long time, Jiang Nan had a thorough understanding of his character.
"Because I'm busy with my grandmother's affairs, my meals are a little irregular."
Gu Yanzhou sat down, handed his wrist to Jiang Nan, and obediently began to explain.
Jiang Nan glared at Gu Yanzhou unhappily, ignored him, and concentrated on taking his pulse.
It's just that my spleen and stomach are weak, nothing serious.
"Here, eat this, then wash your hands and come with me to eat," Jiang Nan took out a prepared Chinese medicine pill from his medicine box and handed it to Gu Yanzhou.
Gu Yanzhou reached out to take it, put it into his mouth and swallowed it without asking any questions.
"Wait, I need to discuss something with you."
Gu Yanzhou reached out and grabbed Jiang Nan who was about to walk out.
"Yeah," Jiang Nan turned around and raised his eyebrows, signaling him to speak.
"I want to take grandma out today, but she took the antidote last night and woke up once. She is confused. Do you think it is appropriate to move grandma at this time?"
Hearing this, Jiang Nan pondered for a moment, and then said after careful consideration: "It's cold now, and the old lady is weak now. If you are more careful, it should be possible, but no one can guarantee such things."
"Then be more careful," Gu Yanzhou had already made up his mind.
After all, he was far away from the Marquis of Pingyang's Mansion and could not take care of it, so if the poisoning happened once, it would happen again.
"Let's go eat first. I'm really hungry."
Gu Yanzhou asked Rong Xin to prepare a more spacious carriage, but it might take some time.
Enough for breakfast.
Walking to the dining table, Father Jiang and Qingying had prepared mushroom meat buns, tea eggs, and millet porridge together.
Gu Yanzhou, who had not eaten for two consecutive meals, looked at the fragrant breakfast on the table and felt so hungry for the first time.
"Please sit down and eat! We have to pick up the old lady later."
Seeing that he looked a little embarrassed, Jiang Nan picked up a bun and stuffed it into Gu Yanzhou's hand while speaking.
Gu Yanzhou then sat down with the bun and started eating it with big mouthfuls, but his actions did not seem rude at all.
"Little Gu, don't be polite, eat more," Jiang's mother pushed the freshly baked buns towards Gu Yanzhou again.
"Thank you, aunt."
"Xiao Gu, if you can get them, please leave some for me." Father Jiang, who came over, saw that all the buns he had worked so hard to make were in front of Gu Yanzhou, and he looked at Mother Jiang with some grievance.
"Xiao Gu is a guest."
Mother Jiang looked at Father Jiang with some disdain, then turned around and enthusiastically handed two tea eggs to Gu Yanzhou.
His face-changing speed is comparable to that of Bao Gong.
Gu Yanzhou was just about to say something, wondering if they would get into an argument because of him.
"Eat your meal quickly," Jiang Nan kicked Gu Yanzhou under the table to signal him to shut up.
Jiang Nan was already accustomed to this scene.
If no one else interferes, the two of them will pass by in a while.
"After you finish eating, go quickly and bring someone back to find me. I will check the old lady again."
"Well, uncle and aunt, I'm leaving first."
"What's going on? Who is Xiao Gu going to pick up?" Jiang's mother asked Jiang Nan gossipingly after seeing them leave.
